game--sumo
i can't remember where i found this game, but it's one that the kids really like, especially if you've got a very active group of kids.
aim:vocab drilling
things you need: vocab cards, clothespins
age: any (works best with 8-13 year olds)
level: low
game outline:
*pick 2 children to battle.
*attach the vocab card to the back of their shirt, using the clothespin. make sure that the other child cannot see it.
*children face each other. when teacher says "go", they must try to see what is on the back of the other child's shirt. they are not allowed to use hands.
*basically they run around in circles until one of them sees and correctly identifies the card on the back of the shirt. if it starts to go on too long, teacher can count down from 10. then, time's up and you show them what's on the back of the shirts and have them identify it.

Hello. This is my first time to post. This game sounds fun. It might be good for even kindergarteners. The kids in my class are learing colors now. I'll try this using flash cards in the next lesson. Thank you :)
good luck! it's a fun but very rowdy game!
